Medical identification products are internationally recognized tags or emblems highlighting that the wearer has a medical condition that the public should be aware of - should they be involved in an emergency or accident. These medical emblems are often attached to pieces of jewelry such as bracelets and necklaces for convenience and visibility. Often distinguishable with a medical symbol in either red or blue - the items are then engraved with the specific personal medical information that first responders or any emergency services should be aware of.
These tags are often made out of Sterling Silver or Stainless Steel, but can also come in a variety of materials such as items in the IceCarats collection - cast from both 14K white and yellow gold. We have such a large range of medical alert bracelets here from your average simple styles, to more stylish medical alert bracelets, to those specific medical alert bracelets for women.
Medical ID bracelets come in various types. Bracelets bearing a logo or inscription indicating a particular medical condition are the most common. These bracelets are available with pre-engraved conditions, pre-engraved symbols, or as engravable medical ID bracelets - ready for your own customization with your medical history. Some well-known symbols are for conditions such as Type 1 Diabetes, Alzheimer’s, severe allergies, and even bee stings.
Bracelets are widely accepted as the preferred form of ID tag if one is choosing to wear a medical identification tag, as they allow for self-contained information that does not require technology for immediate viewing in an emergency situation. If the wearer happens to be in a situation where they are injured and unable to communicate for themselves, the tag, if found by an emergency responder will communicate all and any important information regarding their medical needs. EMTs will likely notice anything on your wrist first. Other locations could go unnoticed until much later.
The medical alert bracelet is one of the most important pieces of jewelry you will ever buy and own. It is designed to speak for you when you cannot. Since this medical ID bracelet is an item that you will wear every day, we recommend considering the following when purchasing one:
We would recommend having a few sets with the same information to choose from - allowing you to mix and match your medical jewelry to suit your mood, style, or any event you are attending.
Individuals with the following health conditions are advised to wear Medical Alert Bracelets (rather than just Emergency Contact Information jewelry) all of the time:
Anyone with any sort of health condition can wear a medical bracelet. Whether it be engraved with specific medical history information or have a visible emblem representing a certain condition. Anyone who would like this information to be communicated in an emergency situation should wear some sort of medical jewelry on them, at all times.
Any information regarding your health condition, history, or current condition that would be helpful for an EMT or First Responder to know should go on your ID. As well as medical information and Emergency Contact name and number are also useful to have on your medical jewelry.
EMTs is trained to look for medical alert jewelry around the wrists and neck - so your bracelet can be worn on whichever wrist you find most comfortable for everyday wear.
